About this listen

Tanner and Jerry turn up the heat with an episode dedicated to peppers in all their forms. They start with where chilis came from, how they traveled across the globe, and the ways they shaped entire cuisines. From there, they break down how to cook with peppers for flavor—not just fire—so even heat-averse cooks can get more out of them in the kitchen. Then things get intense as they welcome a Guinness World Record holding pepper eater while Jerry bravely takes on a Scotch Bonnet he immediately regrets. Finally, they taste-test a lineup of hot sauces and Tanner shares the wild, very real story of the original Sriracha—and how the lack of a trademark created a world of legal copycats.

Amuse Booze: Spicy Margarita with habanero tincture.

This week’s sponsors: Sous Vide Yoga and Pickled Milk.
